Primitive grass tent or campervan campsite

Liked: Le calme du lieu... Le joli jardin et le petit lac...

Disliked: La douche à l air libre... un bout de toit en planches serait nécessaire...et peu cher.! Les toilettes '' sèches '' étaient elles entièrement fermées.! En comparaison un même camping en France avec sanitaires fermés et modernes ne coûte que 5 euros.!.!..! Un '' urinoir'' vraiment' 'déplacé' '... à cacher plutôt qu' à exposer de cette façon... Pas prévenue de mon arrivée.! Pas d eau chaude pour la vaisselle... Eau glacée à prendre dans un broc..! Du camping comme il y a 50 ans...

Local attractions

Walks in this area have a habit of turning up intriguing sights – especially if you head for the areas around the ruins of Strata Florida Abbey (half an hour's drive), Devil’s Bridge Falls (35 minutes) and Dolaucothi Gold Mines (35 minutes). A little closer to home, the National Trust estate Llanerchaeron (15 minutes) makes a lovely place for a stroll too, taking in the walled garden, the farmyard and the John Nash-designed Georgian villa. For more of those animal encounters, take the kids along to play with the pigs, goats and donkeys or scamper about at indoor and outdoor play areas at Fantasy Farm Park (five minutes), or sign up for alpaca walks with Fort Alpacas or Woodlands Alpacas (both 15 minutes' drive). The coast may well be calling around here, of course, so head a little way west for beach days and seafood meals in Aberaeron (15 minutes), dolphin-spotting boat trips from New Quay (25 minutes) or a ride on the Vale of Rheidol Railway from Aberystwyth (half an hour).
